This Is How I Save My Life: A True Story of Embryonic Stem Cells, Indian Adventures, and Ultimate Self-Healing

Armed with the self-created motto “When life kicks your ass, kick back,” a fiery young woman with a debilitating and misdiagnosed disease travels to a tiny clinic in India for a controversial embryonic stem cell treatment. Get lost in a magical country of vibrant colors and mouth-watering curry, where sacred cows line the rambunctious streets and the symphony of honking horns never sleeps.

Entertaining, funny and inspirational, this is a no holds-barred story that will inspire you to follow your heart and maybe even see your life in a whole new way. On the journey to save her miserably failing body, Amy finds a world of cultural mayhem, radical medical treatment, and most importantly, a piece of her life that she never even knew she was searching for.

While Amy’s story is an honest but humorous look at her adventures with Lyme disease and other chronic health failures, this book is so much more than a story of disease and treatment. It is about the spiritual journey of healing and the pilgrimage of life. Through extensive research and her own recovery experience, Amy finds the most important piece for her own healing—the impact of unprocessed negative emotions on our physical bodies.

This powerful and uplifting story of sheer determination is for anyone who believes in—or doubts—the existence of miracles and the infinite power of self-healing.
